CHAPTER 4 mutha truckaaaa, so yeah, here yah go merry Birthmas. Also comment, review, and all that good stuff, it makes me smile when you do it, an d when I smile rainbows appear sporadically.
"Ughh, what happened, and why am I sleeping in a trashcan?", then the party started coming back to him, just bits and pieces at first.
Let's see, Partied my ass off, danced with Dash, yeah defiantly a great night, but man was that some really hard Cider.
A groan was heard next to him, looking to my right I saw a cyan, and rainbow colored mare next to me, trying to blink the sleep out of her eyes. "Why are we in a trashcan?" was all she could say
"I have no idea, but I'm getting out of it, here let me help you out." The moment I hit the ground I began to feel the effects of my hangover, my vision going black for a couple of seconds, and my knees going a little wobbly, but it passed as soon as it came.
"Here take my hoof", I reached out and grabbed her foreleg, and started to pull her out." There all better, come on lets go get some coffee to clear our heads.
"No thanks I need a shower first, don't want to go round smelling like the sewer monster." Soarin chuckled at this.
"Mind if I accompany you? I could really use a shower."
"You're getting the cold water then" She smirked back at him.
"I've got a better idea how bout we race up there, first one at the door wins first shower" I challenged her, knowing that I had a good chance of winning.
Rainbow dash put on her trademark grin, and her eyes were set ablaze with the thought of a challenge, filled with determination "Well, looks you get a cold shower and a loss"
Now I was starting to get second thought about this whole race thing. "Ok, 3...2...1.. GO!"
The race was on with them both a little slower than normal, in their hung-over state, but none the less, Soarin was feeling exhilarated, I hadn't flown happily and freely like this for a long time. I realized that dash was starting to pull ahead, so I turned it up another notch and got a nose above her.
"You're not winning that easily" Yelled Dash over the wind, and then she went faster than she had in a long time, pulling a full body length in front of Soarin, and landed peacefully on the cloud. "I can just feel that warm shower" She joked at him
"Yeah, yeah, yeah, just hurry it up" Replied the gloomy Wonder bolt as they entered her house. "Holy Celestia, this place is awesome" I stared at the massive ceiling rainbow colored waterfalls going in and out of the house, the giant pillars. " I've seen some nice houses dash, but this one is at the top of the list" Soarin. Said happily, making dash blush slightly.
"You know it only the best for the best" recovered dash, making me chuckle.
"Ok sinew you won first shower I'll be waiting down here"
"Ok just make yourself at home" the first thing I thought was to just raid her fridge, but knew that it wouldn't make dash happy so I simply just got a granola bar and sat on the couch.
I heard the shower go on upstairs, thinking of things to past the time I found a giant stain left on a carpet of hers. I'll just go ask her where her cleaning things are on the otherwise of the door.
When I finally found the bathroom through the giant house, I was about to ask out loud, but heard rainbow talking to herself in the shower. His mom had always taught me to never eavesdrop, but how could I resist.
I leaned against the door, barely able to make out her words.
"I wonder if he really does like me, and do I like him, I'm always happy around him, and he makes me happy, but there's something else about him." Soaring started thinking about how I felt about dash, she was a great mare, dependable, loyal, athletic, smart, and cute. Everything I could ever want in a mare, but did I like her like that.
Even though I didn't know if I liked her, the fact that she liked me made me get excited and nervous all at the same time. Now thinking of how I would act around her knowing this, then I thought of something his best friend had to told him.
"If she likes you already for who you are, then why act different?" With that settled I quickly knocked on the door and asked where the cleaning stuff was.
"Under the sink" came her quick reply.
After getting the cleaning utensils I cleaned the stubborn stain. Walking back the kitchen I hears the shower turn off upstairs and made his way to the bathroom. By the time I got there dash had already gone Into her room.
After taking a quick shower I got out dried off then headed downstairs, to find dash ready to leave.
"So what's on the busy wonder bolts schedule today?" Now that I thought of it, it was his day off.
"Nothing really, this my first time being in ponyville on pleasure not business so would you mind showing me around?"
"Not at all, I think you're going to love the first place we go."
With that they were off flying at high speeds through town soaring following just a little behind dash, dash still thinking it was so awesome to be showing one of "the" best wonder bolts around, bur on the other hooves knew that age liked me more for being soaring not a wonder bolt.
As they approached their destination Soarin joked at dash "this will be the first time I meet your friends without them extremely angry at me."
Dash half chuckled half laughed at this.
"So why did you bring me here?" I said thinking that this was just another ordinary farm
"You're telling me you have never had some sweet apples acres apple pie?" This made Soarin's ears perk up immediately.
"Did you say apple pie. Don't joke with me about apple pie dash, pie. Is. My. Life!"
"Not only pie, but the best apple pie this side of equestria."
"I think I'm going to like this place." I said as they landed.
"This is also the place of the element holder of honesty, and my best friend." She said as they knocked on the door, out flew three little fillies with an angry red pony storming after them.
"Don't worry about it, it's just the CMC. Hey Apple Jack, you there?" She yelled through the door, out stepped the same orange mare from the tree house.
"Well howdy thee you two, what brings you to these parts?" She asked
"You see my good friend here has never had the pleasure of tasting your delicious apple pies, so we thought we could stop by and have some."
"well I'll tell Y'all, we here have the best! Pie in all Equestria, but Imma guessin your gonna find that out yourselves."
" can't wait to try." His mouth already watering by the thought, when the pie finally came after what felt like forever, but was only 5 minutes, I dug in.
But moment I took his first bite I put my spoon and fork down in surprise.
"This has to be, No is the best thing to touch my mouth, EVER!" my mind in a pie Euphoria. I felt like I was floating around in a heavenly goodness know as apple pie. His mind melting away, then I heard some foreign voice entering my dojo of pie goodness.
"Soarin, Soarin buddy snap out of it"
"Wha, huh, oh yeah I'm a not living I a pie, sorry bout that guys" I could feel my cheeks slowly getting hotter.
"No problem other than the fact that while you were in that trance you ate all you pie like a madman." She said, just barely containing laughter.
"Hey a man's gotta love his pie, anyways I hear you have 4 more friends, and not that I don't like it here I'm already a little behind on time. Thanks Apple Jack, You will probably be seeing me soon!" I yelled as they gained distance from the farm.
"I'm counting on it" Was the last thing I heard from her before she disappeared under the crest of the hill I had just walked over.
"Where to next?" I thought thinking of all her friends that were left for us to see.
"well, seeing as I didn't get any pie, after everything on that table was engulfed by you, I thought we could head over to pinkies.
After giving her a sheepish smile, I apologized, "Wait are you talking about the crazy party pony?"
"yeah, how did you know?"
"We've met" I said thinking about the insanely excited pony that never seemed to stop
"So how far to the place?"
"well it's in town, so you know kinda far."
"Then what are we walking around for, Lets fly!" I said stretching my wings and gliding into the air. Knowing Dash would want to challenge me, but to my amazement we simply glided into town and landed in the middle of the town square.
As we walked into the bakery just a few blocks from the town, I was hit by the scent of fresh cupcakes, the next thing I knew though there was the crazy party pony in front of me, that seemed to come out of thin air.
"OHHH, Soarin, what did you think of the party? Wasn't it totally awesome, I had such a fun time, you and dash got so drunk you fell asleep in trashcans! Great party!" My mind was getting overloaded by questions than answers to the questions.
"Pinke, calm down we just came here for some cupcakes." Said dash
"Why didn't you just say so silly" The pink pony quickly walked away humming some tune.
"Thanks for saving me back there" I said as we sat down
"No problem, so Saorin what do you think of ponyville, in the short hectic time you've been here?
"It's nice to be out of a giant town, so confusing at times, I actually like this place better than Canterlot." I said trying to get comfortable in the small chair.
"Wow, I never would have thought" she said looking bewildered, but quickly changed to one of happiness as pinkie came back over with some cupcakes. Trying to be a gentleman I let her eat first.
"Man I have been waiting to eat all day" She said as she put the cupcake to her mouth, about half an inch from her face, the door swung open, revealing Twilight Sparkle, looking frantic.
"Rainbow dash, we need you right now! I'll explain everything on the way there.
"Oh, come on, I was so close to eating" She said looking a little mad, but got up and followed Twilight out the door with me in tow.
"Ok, so what's the problem." Said a annoyed Rainbow Dash
"Well, derpy doo was delivering some mail to Cloudsdale, when she found the weather station with no one in there, so she thought it would be a good idea to bout extra rain clouds in ponyville after the drought. But forgot to turn off the cloud machine. Now there is a tornado size storm heading straight for ponyville."
"I know it's dangerous, but we have to stop it somehow" I said behind them both .
"exactly, so dash what do you say?"
Rainbow Dash looked troubled for a little bit, but hesitantly nodded her head in agreement, she looked a little nervous, so I walked up to her and whispered to her "Don't worry dash I'll be up there with you, there's nothing to get scared of, trust me.
"You kidding, I'm n-not afraid I'm the best flyer in all Equestria, I'm not afraid of anything. She yelled into the rising winds.
"Now that's the dash I like to hear" Although she still looked a bit shaken.
"Ok good, now I'm going to use just a little magi on you, so any debris that might hit you will deflect right off you like a force field."
"well that's cool" was all I could think to say as me and dash started to take off.
"Be careful." Was the last thing I heard from Twilight.
"Ok dash, we have to take out the biggest clouds first, then we can let the scattered thunderstorms rain themselves out." I said thinking it was the best plan, but I didn't realize just how massive this storm was.
"you sure about this Soarin, that's a pretty big cloud." Dash gulped
"No problem" I said trying to look and sound confident, but on the inside I was trembling.
"Come on the sooner we start the sooner we stop" I said already starting to feel the rain on my face, and pelt.
"I guess" Came the faint reply of dash, now a husk of her former self
As we entered the largest cloud things started to get hectic. First problem was his eyesight, I had been smart enough to wear his goggles, but the visibility was reduced to about 10 feet, I quickly started to work at the edges of the massive cloud, slowing shrinking down, I saw the flash of orange or red, and sometimes cyan, marking the sight of rainbow dash, every time I saw her I breathed a small sigh of relief. But I quickly realized that this was not going so well, even with my amazing endurance from all my training I was starting to get worn out, I didn't even want to think of how Rainbow was doing.
The cloud now the size of your average raincloud, my hopes started to rise only to destroyed as I saw what had to be the tornado, object being flung all around it as it quickly gained ground on him. I have to find Rainbow and get her out of here, was all I could think of doing. Looking for the trademark rainbow, I quickly realized that she might have gotten hit by one of the pieces of debris. After about 3 minutes of searching I finally found her struggling to get around the tornado I flew as hard as I could to reach her, but was just out of reach when it happened.
Time seemed to slow as a tree branch the size of a chariot, came flying toward them, I tried to get in between her and the limb, but the wind was too much, I watched her horrified face as it struck her and started to fall...
